1. A method of operating an overcurrent protection control system, comprising;

  • monitoring an operational state of a motor;

    defining a threshold current value of the control system responsive to the operational state of the motor;

    sensing an amount of current being supplied from a power source to the motor;

    comparing the sensed current amount and the threshold current value; and

    electrically isolating the power source from the motor if the sensed current amount exceeds the threshold current value.
